I vote to change the time to 11:30am, out of respect for those that requested the time change. Yom Kippur is the holiest Jewish holiday, and those that practice fast from sundown on the 20th until sundown the 21st. They'll want to go home and eat before getting ready to attend services.

No Jewish Holiday on 8/16. September 20th is different which Jon addressed. Our unit game is usually over by 3:45 so there should not be any conflict on the 20th to meet their obligations by 6:00pm. Trying to get the time change is very complicated. So, for me, NO to the time change.

And your feedback. I think that we can help those of Jewish descent with an earlier game. As I said, I need to confer with Mojo about this and knowing it’s in September allows us the time to let our payers know. I will get back to you with his reply. Also, Pat is going to do the first lunch in September and Sherna has volunteered for November. Who would like to do October? December oil the holiday party so no need there. We need volunteers for January and February. March is the Election party and we do that up anyway. Then a new Board will come in and a new schedue will be made up. Thanks a.

Sunday, September 20 is the night of Yom Kippur, so it would be helpful to finish bridge early.

Maybe it's Yom Kippur on September 20th? According to my mom, Yom Kippur services would start about 6pm. Those who will be fasting will want to eat dinner before then. Just an fyi. Will wait to hear back what Mojo says. :-) Miriam ________________________________ From: Lisa Walker <lisawalkerlac@gmail.com<mailto:lisawalkerlac@gmail.com>> Sent: Monday, August 3, 2026 10:38 AM To: Unit board discussion list <unit559board@bridgemojo.com<mailto:unit559board@bridgemojo.com>> Cc: Kim Ebner <kebner@aol.com<mailto:kebner@aol.com>>; unit559board@bridgemojo.com<mailto:unit559board@bridgemojo.com> <unit559board@bridgemojo.com<mailto:unit559board@bridgemojo.com>> Subject: [Unit559board] Re: Unit items Sorry, I thought you all knew this from the previous emails. It is a Jewish holiday and it has been requested that we move the time one hour earlier. I think we should see if we can do it. I think it’s a courtesy to all our players of the Jewish Faith and I’m gonna talk to Mojo about it so I’ll just see what’s involved in doing it.

The dealing machine that the unit owns is at the club. The boards that were purchased were given away when Diane closed her club bc they were in bad shape. The bridgemates and bidding boxes are at the club. All is accounted for. We never decided on the dates for expanded lunches. Do you want to make it the first Sunday of the month? If so, who would like to do September? We forgot to talk about changing the game time on the 16th to 11:30. I have to ask mojo because it changes the sanction of the game. Currently we hold a sanction for Sunday afternoon only. I’ll get back to you on it. Thanks for hanging out yesterday.
